No lo digo yo, lo dice ahora un tribunal francés. No sé cómo andarán con el asunto de la copia privada por tierras galas, pero esto es lo que cuenta Copyfight:
On Thursday, the French Court of Appeal of Montpellier released a 22-year-old Internet user free of charges after he was sued for copying nearly 500 movies on Internet, burning them on CDs and sharing them with friends. The Court based its decision on the article L-122-5 of the French Intellectual Property Code stating that ‘authors can’t forbid copies or reproductions that are only intented for the private use of the copyist.’
Nótese que compartir una obra con un amigo entra dentro del ámbito del uso privado; mucha gente confunde ámbito privado con ámbito doméstico (familiares básicamente), de forma incomprensible.
